实用英语：Do sth. outdoorsy 野外活动
Larry和李华正在商量下个周末去哪里玩儿。LL: Hey, Li Hua, do you remember how much fun we had camping in the woods?
Wouldn't you like to do something outdoorsy again this weekend?
LH: Do something outdoorsy? 你是说户外活动吧。
LL: That's right! But "doing something outdoorsy" doesn't just mean to do
something outside, though. Playing basketball or badminton outside isn't really
outdoorsy.
LH: 在户外打球都不算outdoorsy, 那什么才算呢?
LL: Well, outdoorsy activities - like fishing, hunting, hiking, camping and
canoeing - are ones that you do in natural settings, such as in a forest or near
a river.
LH: 哦，我知道了，就是一定要到野外才行，在公园里和运动场上还算不上是outdoorsy.
LL: That's it. So - what do you say, do you want to do something outdoorsy
this weekend, Li Hua?
LH: 上次去宿营确实挺开心的，咱们这次干点儿什么别?
LL: Well, you know me, Li Hua. I'm a very outdoorsy kind of guy. How about
we go canoeing?
LH: 划独木舟啊。听起来挺过瘾的，可我有点儿怕。
LL: Don't worry. I can teach you how to paddle a canoe. You don't have to
be an outdoorsy person to learn how to do it.
LH: 可是独木舟那么窄，翻了怎么办啊，我可不会游泳。有没有不那么危险的野外活动呢?
LL: Oh, that is right. I forgot you can't swim very well. Okay...What other
outdoorsy things might you like to do?
LH: 有了!我们到纽约州的山里去远足吧!
LL: Perfect. And I can borrow a backpack from one of my outdoorsy friends.
That way we can bring food, water and other supplies we might need.
LH: Okay. 那我要做些什么准备呢?
LL: In addition to a backpack, you are going to need a good pair of hiking
boots. I know a place that specializes in all sorts of outdoorsy stuff. We can
get the boots there.
LH: 好，那你陪我去买。也许你能把我改造成一个喜欢野外活动的人呢!
